Effects of Long-Term Straw Return and Tillage Practices on Soil Physicochemical Traits and Yield of Waxy Maize

-
  Long-term straw return combined with appropriate tillage practices plays a crucial role in improving soil health and sustaining crop productivity in waxy maize cultivation. Continuous incorporation of crop residues enhances soil organic matter, boosts nutrient availability, and improves soil structure by increasing aggregation and porosity. These changes support better moisture retention and root development, ultimately strengthening plant growth. Conservation tillage systems—such as reduced or no-tillage—further complement straw return by minimizing soil disturbance, reducing erosion, and promoting beneficial microbial activity. Over time, these integrated practices lead to improved soil physicochemical attributes including pH stability, nutrient cycling efficiency, and enhanced cation exchange capacity. As a result, waxy maize grown under long-term straw return and optimized tillage management often demonstrates increased yield potential, greater resilience to environmental str...

Assessment of Rice Productivity and Solar Power Generation in Agriphotovoltaic Systems

-
  The assessment of rice productivity within agriphotovoltaic systems highlights a promising approach to optimizing land use by combining agriculture with renewable energy generation. These systems integrate solar panels above rice fields, enabling farmers to cultivate crops while simultaneously producing clean electricity. Research indicates that partial shading from solar panels can help moderate field temperatures, reduce water evaporation, and create a microclimate that supports stable rice growth. At the same time, solar modules generate significant power without compromising crop yields when panel height and spacing are properly optimized. This dual-use model enhances energy efficiency, boosts farm-level income, and supports climate-resilient agricultural practices. Evaluating factors such as solar irradiance, panel configuration, crop response, and energy output plays a crucial role in determining system performance. Overall, agriphotovoltaic systems present an innovative an...

Exploring the Root–Soil Anchoring Dynamics of Bambusa pachinensis (Pachi Bamboo) Root System

-
  The root–soil anchoring dynamics of Bambusa pachinensis (Pachi Bamboo) play a crucial role in maintaining slope stability, enhancing soil structure, and mitigating erosion in tropical and subtropical ecosystems. This study explores the mechanical interaction between the bamboo’s fibrous, rhizomatous root system and surrounding soil matrices. The dense network of fine roots and rhizomes provides exceptional soil reinforcement by increasing shear strength and improving water infiltration capacity. Root tensile strength and distribution patterns significantly influence the plant’s anchorage efficiency, enabling B. pachinensis to withstand high wind forces and soil displacement. Advanced modeling and in situ measurements reveal that deeper and more horizontally spreading roots enhance both mechanical stability and soil cohesion. These findings underscore the potential of Bambusa pachinensis as a bioengineering species for slope protection, riverbank stabilization, and ecological r...

Investigation of Implantable Capsule Grouting Technology and Its Bearing Characteristics in Soft Soil Areas

-
  The investigation of implantable capsule grouting technology in soft soil areas focuses on enhancing the bearing capacity and stability of weak ground foundations. This innovative method involves the use of pre-implanted capsules filled with specialized grouting materials that can be injected and expanded under controlled pressure to strengthen the soil matrix. The technology effectively reduces settlement, increases load-bearing performance, and improves the overall deformation resistance of soft clay and silty soils commonly found in coastal and reclaimed regions. By optimizing grouting diffusion patterns and material composition, researchers aim to achieve uniform reinforcement, minimize construction disturbances, and ensure long-term durability of infrastructure such as tunnels, foundations, and underground structures. The study also integrates numerical modeling and field testing to assess stress distribution, soil–grout interaction, and the evolution of bearing characterist...

Bio-Organic Fertilizers Enhance Yield in Continuous Cotton Cropping Systems

-
  The integration of bio-organic fertilizers in continuous cotton cropping systems offers a sustainable strategy to boost yield, improve soil health, and reduce dependency on chemical inputs. Continuous cotton cultivation often leads to nutrient depletion, soil compaction, and reduced microbial diversity, negatively impacting productivity over time. The application of bio-organic fertilizers—comprising beneficial microorganisms, composted organic matter, and nutrient-rich bio-residues—helps restore soil fertility and enhance nutrient cycling. These fertilizers stimulate root growth, improve nitrogen fixation, and increase the availability of essential macro- and micronutrients. Additionally, they enrich the soil microbiome, enhancing enzyme activities and promoting better water retention and aeration. Studies show that bio-organic fertilization can significantly increase cotton boll formation, fiber quality, and overall yield stability across multiple growing seasons. By integratin...

Modeling Soil Organic Carbon Dynamics Under Two Cropping Modes in Salinized Paddy Fields

-
  Understanding soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics in salinized paddy fields is critical for improving soil fertility and mitigating climate change impacts. This study models the temporal and spatial variations of SOC under two distinct cropping modes—continuous rice cultivation and rice–wheat rotation—using process-based and empirical modeling approaches. Results indicate that salinity levels significantly influence SOC stabilization, microbial activity, and carbon sequestration efficiency. Continuous flooding in monocropped rice systems enhances anaerobic carbon preservation, while the alternating wet–dry conditions in rice–wheat systems stimulate organic matter decomposition but promote better nutrient cycling. The model integrates soil physicochemical parameters, crop residue inputs, and salinity gradients to simulate carbon turnover and predict long-term SOC trends. Findings highlight that appropriate cropping mode selection and salinity management can synergistically enhance ...
